730 ml water
1.75 tsp salt
3 units dried red chilli (stem removed)
10 cloves garlic (peeled)
4 tbsp pomace olive oil
50 leaves basil (washed)
71 stem parsley (washed, trimmed)

70 g walnut kernels
70 g roasted salted peanuts
30 g cheese cube
2 tbsp parmesan cheese powder
10 g butter
70 g pasta water (reserved)

Instructions

A new take on traditional winter pesto pasta made from parsley and peanuts instead of basil and pine nuts. Parsley pesto is a great and more affordable version of the traditional basil pesto. Pair with Toasted Bread

Add Pasta and Water
Add 160 g spaghetti (broken in half), 700 ml water, and 1 tsp salt to The Upliance jar. The Upliance will now cook the pasta on low heat for 13 minutes.
Prepare Aromatics for Pesto Base
After pasta is cooked and strained (remember to save 70g pasta water), add 3 units dried red chilli (stem removed), 10 cloves peeled garlic, and 4 tbsp pomace olive oil to The Upliance jar. The device will first cut the aromatics for 10 seconds, then sauté them on low heat for 30 seconds with automatic stirring.
Blend Pesto and Combine with Pasta
Add 50 leaves washed basil, 71 stem washed and trimmed parsley, 71 stem coriander leaves (roots cut), 70 g walnut kernels, 70 g roasted salted peanuts, 30 g cheese cube, 2 tbsp parmesan cheese powder, and 30 g water to The Upliance jar. The device will cut and blend these ingredients for 45 seconds to form the pesto sauce. Next, add the boiled pasta, the reserved 70 g pasta water, 0.75 tsp salt, and 10 g butter to the jar. The device will then mix everything on low heat for 2 minutes.
Final Mix and Serve
The Upliance will perform a final thorough mix for 3 minutes to ensure the pasta is evenly coated with the parsley pesto. The dish is ready to be garnished and served.
